Re: New cast iron
Twenty-five years ago, I was told it would be probably be within two weeks.
However my wonderful SWMBO told the Drs to treat me with everything in their arsenal.
At one stage, the Radiologist told me that if I had one more session of radiotherapy Iβd glow in the dark!
It took me (and my oncologists β I outlasted three) just over 22 years to beat the cancer into submission.
So I guess Iβm here for a good few more years.
SUFFER, people!

They are a bit bigger than I had imagined. Looking good.

Re: New cast iron
Ones on the left were a tad smaller than I expected. Still bought 'em.
Not sure if I'll leave them bare iron or paint them satin black, like the boot lasts.

Re: New cast iron
SWMBO has decreed βENUFF!β
My boot last collection now numbers 23. Only three are duplicates. (One not in pic β being used as a doorstop, ironically. )
I have seven doorstops.
No duplicates.
SWMBO says the display canβt remain in the lounge room, but must return to the bay window in the dining room, where the maximum number it can accomodate is 12.
And Iβm not allowed to build a shelf.
Thanks to Dot & George, Bruce (Brucie2) and Brian (Homeless) for variously spotting and buying on my behalf.
Gunna concentrate on doorstops for a while.
Also gunna get back into The Playpen and do a bit more woodturning. After all, when we moved from Melbourne, I brought about Β½ tonne of assorted woods with me... better get on with the job. (Note left-handed last, at far left, appropriately.) Kookaburra is the heavyweight of the collection... 11.6kg!
Cat is next at 7.6kg, while Rooster doesn't even register, so is less than 1.0kg.
